As BBSuperAbuser pointed out, it sounds like you need to update Java.

So, does it look like we are going to have to start sideloading to be able to get skype, instagram, etc... ? I thought it was all going to be BB native apps.

Can i sideload on my Z10 using the same procedures?

Yes, you can. We have a updated guide here for BlackBerry 10... http://www.blackberryos.com/blackber...-using-pc.html

well written and easy to follow. i did as instructed and got the kindle app running on my playbook; even downloaded a book. when i closed the app there was no icon on my playbook; therefore no way to open the app. repeated the entire process with the same result. any suggestions as to what is going wrong?
